was more susceptible to the coronavirus because they “do not wash their hands as well as other groups” has been chosen to lead the state Senate’s health panel.
Stephen Huffman has"a long record of providing health care to minority neighborhoods and has joined multiple mission trips at his own expense to treat those from disadvantaged countries," John Fortney, spokesman for the Senate president, said"He apologized months ago for asking a clumsy and awkwardly worded question. Sincere apologies deserve sincere forgiveness, and not the perpetual politically weaponized judgment of the cancel culture," Fortney said.
This is the Republican Party of 2021. Fascism is strong in the party and getting stronger.
Oh for fucks sake. It just gets worse and worse.
Makes me sick to think Ohio is even touching Michigan on the map. We don’t want their cooties.
Oh ffs. So Racists-R-Us branding is now downright GOP-chic.
Sick
Normally I’d be astonished but I’m not. It fits in perfect with America
are you freaking kidding me with this
Wow...
Well they are “HI” in the middle! Most have an effect on their thinking! 🤔
OH, GA, AL, TN, SD, LA, AK, FL, KS, OK,MO in some race to the bottom? To see who can be the armpit of red America.
This racist has been appointed to the Health panel for the Ohio state senate, NOT at the national level. It has nothing to do with the Biden administration.
Oh no
Just fuck me sideways with no lube!
Soooo he appointed officials behind every colored person who found that they don't wash their hands? Psst. They are more hygienic than entire OH, WV etc.
OMFG!
Then he has no excuse to say so anymore
Of course, white supremacy is what they stand for and all they want!
Sound about right. Zero accountability in politics.
Tsk, tsk, Ohio. Shame on you.
How is that possible!
This is sickening.
His cousin is the one who appointed him
Say what? These people dont need be in any office.
. He's right. No other group washes their hands as well as Republicans. .
I try hard not to be hateful, but I do dream of the day when these old racists die off. Even if I'm gone by then too. If you look at a person and determine anything about their character by their skin, you should not be in a position of authority. Full stop.
What is wrong with them?
Nothing divisive there then
Wtf?!
Woahio. That just ain’t right.
Well, he does know washing your hands is important! QUALIFIED!
🤦🏻♀️
W T F?
That's outrageous. Does he have any legit qualifications?
Next-Level Peter Principle.
OMG
Ohio lets the ignorance cream rise to the top.
fucking shit head
Joke
gross!
?
Lol really? Wow people believe an say anything.
R u fucking kidding me
What the fuck?
Looks like a RAF flag in the background.
Seriously I swear our gov’t has turned into a side show at the circus! This person should have been expelled for those remarks!
Well oKKK, seems about right for Ohio. It's the Alabama of the north. 🤷
It's no wonder why Ohio is a fly-over state. Who would want to go there? Especially now!
Massive stupidity that should offend every thinking American.
Apologies from an Ohioan. We have work to do here. His cousin out him in the position.
Nothing like a racist comment to advance your career in Republican politics.
timeforjoeandthehotogo
You cannot make this stuff up I dare you to try...
State of Ohio = Russia!!!
I live in Greenville, not far from Tipp City. This is the same community who had a “back the blue” football tailgate (during COVID) with extremely racist undertones. I call BS on his “extensive resume” serving communities of POC.
It should be noted. I am not defending the use of 'Coloured'... I simply feel we should move beyond lumping Peoples into Groups based on Colours. It gives Peoples, zero respect. At the point Races and Racial Mixes, are simplified into colours. That is to me, Racist.
Welcome to America 🤦🏻♀️
I am not 'White', First-Nation People are not 'Red' and so on. Coloured will always be unacceptable. On the same level as 'White' is 'Black'... Either you simplify identity and heritage, to a Colour...or you give people actual respect. Sorry if that offends. I see as I find.
Should have led with this 'State Sen. Stephen Huffman, a Republican who was fired from his job as an emergency room doctor amid the uproar over his remarks last June, was picked for the post by his cousin, Senate President Matt Huffman'.
la nguoi hay mo mong, nhung rat chan thanh.
a man that had been politically groomed by a KKK Cyclops, has raised a sexual deviant and he himself makes female children uncomfortable, cannot stop saying black people are monolithic has admitted to the most extensive voter fraud in history became president.
Ohio is the asshole of America.
Systemic Institutional Racism As long as this “primitive virus/inferior conflict of inspiring self adoration” is at the head of business/ or social platforms the destructive cycle of Racism will continue END Racial/Economic Disparities Reparations Now
🤬🤬🤬
Well i thought trump being impeached already does that mean he can still hold office or doesn't that carry onto until forever
People in Ohio likes their towns backwards.
THAT’S the best Ohio can do?
He's a REPUBLICAN. Please include that important fact in any stories about traitors, seditionists, liars, criminals and racists. They will kill us all. Thanks!
My god hygiene is racist now
My dearest home state of Ohio~ I don’t know wtf has happened to you since I left, but I plan on moving back in a few years, so will you please get your shit together and stop electing so many assholes who think assholes like this guy should lead anything that requires a brain.
White privilege smh
Even in this day and age people still say these kind of things.😡Ofcourse he meant it, apology or not. Why was he fired from the hospital. Anyone know?
Wow wtf is wrong w ppl
Wow everyone must go blind when choosing people for senate or congress
He apologized so it’s okkkay!
A candidate who said poor kids are just as talented as white kids just got elected president of the USA
Yuck
Well, of course he has. Welcome to the tRumpist diaspora.
You might be a racist if........you refer to black people as “colored” in 2020.
And a large portion of Americans still believe systematic racism is a lie.
The level of ignorance in our lawmakers takes my breath away
WTF Who says shit like that?
Really? Why?
Oh my god
Horrified
Almost as good as a Congress man sleeping with a Chinese spy being in intelligence😂
That's Republic or you got some very very ignorant folks elected to office.🥴🥴🥴
He has to read this book🤷♂️
OMG, are these people just stupid or crazy?
I cannot wait to leave this redneck hell hole.
Wtf, yeah, such a bullshit line as if he's a voyeur with a camera on every person everytime giving a statistical response. He probably saw like two people not wash their hands at some point and just generalized with stupidity.
OMG WTF is wrong with Ohio
Seriously Good God Almighty.
That is some peak Republican right there.
Already this looks to be a terrible appointment!
Omg....what is wrong with people? Don’t hire the racist.
I’m white and this is just so wrong! Wtf?
Which proves that his constituents are ok with racism
Lol, no one here knows what they're doing, so he can't hurt 😅 And I wash my hands just fine, thanks! 😂
For fuck’s sake...Ohio refuses to stop embarrassing the non-halfwits who live here.
danielt10439873 This is satire right?
Oh for heaven's sake - that's really despicable!
Maybe he should ask himself why he is so susceptible to racism. Get his own house in order. He should not be in charge of anything with that attitude.
His true sincerity does not lie in his apology but rather in the ignorant question when he asked whether the “colored population” is more susceptible to the coronavirus.
Do racist people just pick the gop or are they recruited?
Of all the ass backwards that could happen. 🙄🙄🙄
wut?
WTAF is wrong with Republicans? They don’t even try to hide the racism anymore.
Hard to believe there are people in 2021 who think and speak like this. I mean truly hard to believe.
You've got to be kidding me. 🤦🏽♀️
How the hell are you going to put a racist son of a bitch to head the State Corona virus task force when he believes blacks are somehow subhuman
Fuck that! Makes me crazy! Politics. Guess I’ll just 🤮instead.
That should go well.
Someone needs to tell him the Earth is flat so he will stay at home and not spread stupidity.
helps when your damn cousin taps you what's with the old boy network nepotism going on here, on top of the brazen racism
It's a legitimate question that your not allowed to ask, would i be i offended if he said white.
uhhhh? this seems to be a problem?! HouseDemocrats JoeBiden WhiteHouse KamalaHarris SpeakerPelosi

Where’s the I gotta vomit buttton when u need one?!
apparently they are disproportionately more at risk due to their race. No scientific evidence has shown why, so is it race or living habits. All very well claiming you're more at risk while not showing nay evidence of it. Accountability really does seem a one sided thing.
I think systemic racial discrimination is a chronic problem that doesn't materially change by firing or rejecting someone...😪
WHY Why does he still have his job?
Bless their hearts.
The more outlandish and racist the more tighter the Republican embrace..
You got to be bullshiting me,,, is this 2021. Because you are a certain race you don't wash your hands.
He said something about health of people? Fair enough, give him the panel...
How embarrassing for those of us who live in Ohio.
spread this as fast as..., well, like trump spread covid
I have LOTS of words. But I am a lady.
Enough internet for today...
Wait , wait.... Let me guess. He is a republican?!
😮
😵
POTUS not kosher
Picked by his COUSIN?! This kind of shit is, at the very least, frowned upon in private business buts its ok to hire your unemployed loser cousin if you're in government?!? WTF?
Out.
Is his claim valid or supported by commonsense?
Poor poor Ohio
Now asking some people to wash their hands before meeting him.
Are you flipping kidding?
Whoever heads the Dept. of Education, is whom I need to speak to the manager of.
Another Bigot getting higher up in ranks
Ignorant “Slob!”
OMFG. Really?
Move over Florida, Ohio is coming.
Atrocious human being
Amazing
So, we had a trip planned for the time when it's safe to travel again, I just took Ohio off the itinerary.
Who the fuck chose him?!
Oh. Great. No racism here.
Wrong. Ever clean a white privileged men’s bathroom?
Ohio is the Indiana of Floridas.
21WFMJ How was that a racist question? Gov DeWine has said all along blacks are more prone to Covid. He even created a task force for this purpose. So is it because blacks don’t wash? Blacks should be offended by DeWines comments
Wow
They picked the dumbest of the dumb.
go home America, you’re drunk
Did he apologize for that ignorant statement?
🤮
Maybe people should use hand sanitizer? Is that a racist suggestion?
Gross!!!
You mean he WAS considered for a position 🤬
We might want to stop this 🇺🇸🙌
😱
Something tells me science and critical thinking are not going to be high on the list of important considerations. Another step backward for Ohio at a time when public health is pretty high on our list of problems.
Incredible. How does the GOP ever win an election?
Dirty politics
ROTTEN STATE
Ohio taking a swing at Florida & Texas at having the worst people in govt! Jim Jordan gives them the most points!
Haha-Well maybe he can learn the answer to his question.. Politics is about hiring your buddies, NOT who is qualified & Trained for the jobs, it seems. That's Ohio. I hope he is a MD. Being the State Health Panel of Ohio's Senate.
WHY on earth would Ohio choose state Sen. Stephen Huffman to lead their states health panel. He is a bigoted racist who has NO clue how to intelligently inform and encourage Ohioans on how to protect themselves from the coronavirus. He should step down.
I can’t believe people like this exist
MikeDeWine With no action you are condoning this persons statements.
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
That term is civil and correct, compared to those Rappers.
Disgusting
I’m so embarrassed Ohio we’ve got to do better!
Some racist guy is the head of a health panel. Health disparities are created in large part because of dumb racist opinions that are given credence because the person that espoused them is white and well connected.
Quite the ridiculous move by Matt Huffman
Must be a Republican
The Bible Condems White supremacy 2 cor 5:16 So from now on we know no man from a fleshly viewpoint. Rom 8:13 for if you live according to the flesh, you are sure to die
WTF
A lot of people in Ohio have their head in the dirt. You guys gotta do better when picking lawmakers.
So many stupid people everywhere we look in this country.
WTAF ! 🤦🏻♀️
Are...are you serious? Jesus... 🤦♀️
Sounds racist to me.
He’s making the klan so proud
If you don't get it, what he said is is racist. Is he one of Ohio's best?
Is JonesDay okay with this? Columbus, Cleveland this can’t be acceptable for an Ohio State official. Time to put those “shared values” to the test
seriously
Blinders are on
What the hell is wrong with Ohio?!?
